Baeckea grandibracteata E.Pritz.[1]
|
Baeckea grandibracteata is a species of flowering plant in the family Myrtaceae and is endemic to central Western Australia. It is an erect to spreading shrub that typically grows to a height of 0.15 to 0.9 metres (0.5 to 3.0 ft) and blooms between September and December producing pink and white flowers. Found on undulating sand-plains in the eastern Wheatbelt region of Western Australia in the area around Yilgarn, it grows in sandy and sandy loam soils.[2]
The species was first formally described by the botanist Ernst Georg Pritzel in 1904 in Engler's journal Botanische Jahrbücher für Systematik, Pflanzengeschichte und Pflanzengeographie in an article by Pritzel and Ludwig Diels entitled Fragmenta Phytographiae Australiae occidentalis.[3][4]
